The Arran Junior Triathlon Club (AJTC) competed at a national level last weekend and raced against more than 400 of the best young triathletes in Scotland to secure a top three finish and a place on the Scottish team.
With the team racing for the first time in the club colours and new racing bikes to suit, they were full of nerves and excitement but ready to see how they would stand up against the best. Team Arran in their new colours, thanks to sponsors Auchrannie Spa Resort, Old Byre Visitor Centre, Filtec WC, Arran Cheese Shop, A Team and Arran Active, managed to obtain one of the best suits at the nationals which was noticed by the commentator on the day.
The youngest triathlete in the seven to eight years age group, Rhea Webster, came third.
